When I posted an entry regarding my upgrade to MovableType 2.5 I neglected to realize that one of the changes in the upgrade was that TrackBack pings are now sent via POST and not GET. My LiveJournal syndication script works via the TrackBack protocol, but was set up only to accept GET data. This is why the empty entry was made into LiveJournal. If it isn't obvious by that, my LiveJournal syndication script is merely a quick hack, and doesn't have even basic levels of error checking. It has been corrected, however, and this post should syndicate just fine.
